Differences of floral resource use between honey bees and wild bees in an intensive farming system (2013, background): “…of perennial crops; the second type prevents the owing of alfalfa in June, which may be used by females little ustard during the incubation period (Bretagnolle et al., 2011). his mass-flowering crop can provide alternative floral resources n the landscape during and after the sunflower flowering…”
Weeds for bees? A review (2015, background): “This decline has affected not only threatened species and species dependent on conservation measures (Donald et al. 2001; Bretagnolle et al. 2011) but also ordinary biodiversity (Green et al. 2005) and has more recently been shown to have affected functional biodiversity (Tscharntke et al. 2005;…”
Uncut grass refuges mitigate the impact of mechanical meadow harvesting on orthopterans (2012, background): “Orthopterans are also an important food source for many birds (Bretagnolle et al., 2011).”
Recursive movement patterns: review and synthesis across species (2015, background): “…movement patterns (e.g., the lek system of the Little Bustard, Tetrax tetrax, in which the females show fidelity to lek sites while the males v www.esajournals.org 6 September 2015 v Volume 6(9) v Article 149 continuously move between them; Alonso et al. 2000, Bretagnolle et al. 2011).”
